Families from Singapore and Malaysia mostly travel in the June and year-end school holidays. June brings long daylight and green Highlands; December brings Christmas markets, short days and a chance of snow. With a private driver, the whole family travels in one car at the children's pace, priced per car — £420 (November to March) or £510 (April to October) a day for up to six.
June holidays: long days in the Highlands
- Daylight until late evening — ideal for Skye in three days or a Glencoe and Loch Ness loop.
- The Jacobite steam train runs over the Glenfinnan Viaduct (Harry Potter bridge) in summer.
- Book early: June is busy for hotels on Skye.
Year-end holidays: Christmas and winter
- Highlands plus Glasgow and Edinburgh Christmas markets — £480 per car.
- Short daylight (sunset around 4pm in December) — we plan sightseeing in daylight hours.
- Winter day-tour prices apply: £420 per car.
